Intimate student-faculty interaction, academic Gus Sessions Wortham Professor freedom, and unrestricted institutional cooperation within and outside the Albert H. Pope university are distinctive qualities of the architecture degree programs at Rice. Students build on their classroom experience through design- build projects in our Construct program; site and office visits with our Professors Mentorship program; and our award-winning Totalization program, which Dawn Finley incorporates professional consultants and instruction (structural, façade, Carlos Jimenez financial, MEP, and other) within the studio, enabling our students to apply advanced technologies to building design and construction.
